MUMBAI: At the rate the Hinduja Group MSO InCablenet is getting switched off by the different pay bouquets, it could soon qualify as a free-to-air platform. After ESPN Star Sports and SET-Discovery, it was the turn of Zee-Turner today to switch off its bouquet of channels on InCablenet in Mumbai.

A statement issued by Zee said the move came in the wake of large outstandings on the part of InCablenet.

The only major pay bouquet now available on InCablenet is the Star Network. According to informed sources, there was a lengthy meeting today between InCablenet officials and the Star distribution team today during which some agreement was reportedly reached.

Commenting on the switching off the Zee-Turner bouquet of channels, Zee Turner CEO Sunil Khanna was quoted in the release as saying, "We have been holding talks with InCable Network since a long time but due to large outstandings of over three months, we are forced to take this action."
